Metabolic stimulation improves bioenergetics and haematologic indices of circulating erythrocytes from sickle cell mice

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Metabolic stimulation improves bioenergetics, redox state, hydration and hematologic indices of circulating erythrocytes from sickle cell mice. Retained mitochondria in circulating RBCs from sickle mice are a source of RBC ATP as mitochondria function (ETC, electron transport chain) inhibitors [rotenone, a mitochondrial complex I

Pitfalls and missing links in current understanding of 4D genomes

open access: yesQuantitative Biology, Volume 14, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract The spatial and temporal organization of the genome—collectively termed the 4D genome—is pivotal for regulating gene expression, maintaining genome stability, and guiding development. The convergence of chromosome conformation capture technologies, super‐resolution microscopy, and single‐cell epigenomics has transformed our understanding of ...

Autosomal Dominant Erythrocytosis Caused by Non‐Renal Erythropoietin (EPO) Due to EPO c.‐136 G>A Germline Mutation

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 784-793, April 2026.
A novel erythropoietin (EPO) promoter mutation (c.‐136 G>A) causes autosomal dominant erythrocytosis via non‐renal expression of EPO. ABSTRACT We previously reported a five‐generation kindred with autosomal dominant erythrocytosis associated with a novel germline promoter variant in the erythropoietin (EPO) gene (EPO c.‐136 G>A).

The Epidemiology of Sickle Cell Disease in Sub‐Saharan Africa: Current Knowledge and Gaps to be Filled

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, Volume 101, Issue S1, Page 5-16, April 2026.
What are the available data on incidence & prevalence prognosis risk factors of severity of sickle cell disease in sub‐Saharan Africa? ABSTRACT Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) is highly prevalent in sub‐Saharan Africa. Epidemiological data remain sparse, but regional screening and research initiatives are expanding.

Genetics and Genomics in Sickle Cell Disease in Africa

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, Volume 101, Issue S1, Page 47-55, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Advanced genomic technologies are revolutionizing our ability to understand complex diseases. Large‐scale population studies are needed to realize the potential of using individual genetic information to personalize treatments for better patient outcomes for chronic non‐communicable diseases, such as sickle cell disease (SCD).

Exploring Affordable Curative Therapy for Sickle Cell Disease in Africa: A Comprehensive Overview

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, Volume 101, Issue S1, Page 56-74, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The practical aspects of developing curative treatments for sickle cell disease (SCD) in Africa, such as gene therapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, involve strengthening healthcare infrastructure, training healthcare professionals, establishing regional treatment centers, and creating national SCD programs.

A century of theories of balancing selection

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 804-825, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Traits that affect organismal fitness are often highly genetically variable. This genetic variation is vital for populations to adapt to their environments, but it is also surprising given that nature – after all – ‘selects’ the best genotypes at the expense of those that fall short.

Sutimlimab in Patients With Cold Agglutinin Disease (CAD): Results From a Managed Access Program

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Haematology, Volume 116, Issue 4, Page 409-415, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Cold agglutinin disease (CAD) is a low‐grade lymphoproliferative disorder accounting for 15%–30% of patients suffering from autoimmune hemolytic anemias. The clonal B cells produce autoantibodies primarily of the IgM‐κ class that cause agglutination of red blood cells (RBCs) at temperatures ≤ 37°C and activate the classical complement pathway ...

Making Molecular Diagnostics Faster

open access: yesInternational Journal of Laboratory Hematology, Volume 48, Issue 2, Page 272-280, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Over the past 40 years, molecular diagnostic methods have evolved from multi‐step, time‐consuming protocols towards either rapid targeted tests or expansive, massively parallel testing. Aims Here we consider the speed limits of targeted molecular diagnostics, considering the three sequential required steps: nucleic acid preparation,

Molecular Testing in Sickle Cell Disease: From Newborn Screening to Transfusion Care

open access: yesInternational Journal of Laboratory Hematology, Volume 48, Issue 2, Page 295-304, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) is one of the most frequent monogenic diseases worldwide and a highly heterogeneous and complex disease. SCD care carries several challenges. This includes early and accurate diagnosis as well as optimal red blood cell transfusion matching in this population carrying a high risk of alloimmunization.
